Default Values For Columns (Date Related)
Jul 27, 2007
Hi,
I want to make the default value of my column "TimeonOW" to be the difference in months(past 12) from the entered date in "OWStartDate" and the current system date.
For for example
mm/dd/yyyy
CurrentDate - OWStartDate = TimeonOW
07/01/2007 - 05/01/2005 = 26
I played around with the DateDiff function but to no avail.
=DateDiff("d",Now(),[OWStartDate])
=DateDiff("d",Now(),#2004-31-12#) etc
The reason behind this is because I need to count how many people fall into different month span categories, maybe theres a better way?
Thanks in advance.

In Access 2010 I have a Data Entry Form on which I have an unbound textbox in the header that the user can put a default date in. In the body of the form is a bound textbox that records the date and the default value is set as =defaultdatestat (obviously the name of the box in the header).
Problem: The default date shows up perfectly until a value is put in any of the other text boxes.
For further info : If you put values in text boxes default value disappears; if you then push escape the default value reappears when the values in the text boxes disappear.

In the attached Database, I have four tables. The purpose of the Database is to track training for employees. A quick description of each table:
Employees: List of employees requiring training
Course List: List of Courses offered
Course Schedule: When said courses are offered (one to many relationship with Course List). this has a Composite Primary key consisting of the Course Number and Section Number
Course Attendance: This is to track which employees attended which class.
Question 1:
In the Course Attendance table, the first field (SOS Course Number) looks to the Course Schedule table. This field uses a lookup to select the course and section number, but only displays the course number. How do I get it to also display both the course and section number (don't care if it is displayed in one or two columns)?
Question 2:
Similar problem, except the second field is Employee Last Name which is a lookup from the Employee table. I want to display both last and first name in two separate columns.
Note, I realize there are spaces in table and field names. Please ignore this for now. It will be fixed later.

I have three tables: Event related on to many with Procedure Procedure relates on a one to one basis with the description of the procedure in a table called ProcedureCodes.
I wish to have a query which outputs three columns:
Event - Prcedure1, Procedure2, etc - Description1, Description2, etc.
I have tried the Allen Browne module [URL] .... This gives me:
Event - Procedure1, Procedure2, etc using the expresion:
Expr1: ConcatRelated("[Procedure Code]","[tbl-procedures]","[tbl-procedures].[Event number]=" & [Event no]) to concatenate the procedures.
But I am struggling to get the final column! I have tried the following:
Expr2: ConcatRelated("[short description]","[tbl-procedure code]","[tbl-procedure code].[ProcedureCode]=""" & [Procedure Code] & """" And "[tbl-procedures].[Event number]=" & [Event no])
But this does not return what I want.

I am fairly new to Access and have no formal training on this program, just a lot of trial and error. I have a database with 4 tables. They are tblEmployees, tblCourses, tblDates, and tblTraining. The key for each was an autonumber that is EMPLOYEEID, COURSEID, DATEID, and TRAININGID.
tblEmployee lists pertinent information regarding an employee (name, serial #, shift, etc). tblCourse lists all courses that are available for an employee (course name, #hours, required attendees, type of training, etc).
tblDates lists all available class dates and times for the courses in tblCourses and has a lookup field for COURSEID and COURSETITLE from tblCourses.
tblTraining lists all the training scheduled for and completed by an employee and has a lookup/relationship with tblEmployees for EMPLOYEEID and EMPLOYEENAME.
It also has a lookup/relationship field with tblCourses for COURSEID and COURSETITLE. Finally, it has a lookup/relationship with tblDates with lookup field/relationship with DATEID and CLASSDATE. I have successfully created a form where the training can be added to an employee (frmTrainingUpdated) and it has a subform (frmTraining) with all classes for that employee in a multilist at the bottom (from a query of tblTraining). The subform also has a field for whether the training was completed and then the hours are credited to the employee (txtCredit).
The problem comes when I try to add all of the credited hours for a single employee in a separate field. I am trying to create a field somewhere on the form that will total all of the hours for all of the completed classes for the one employee on the form. I have tried to list the data for the textbox as =DSUM([txtCredit], tblTraining, WHERE (EMPLOYEE=Me.Employee)) and only get an error message displayed in the textbox. I tried to do a totals SUM on the query and it only gives me the individual hours for each class on the same line for that record.

Hi all,
Is it possible to make the default values of a table with symbols in it?
I have a database that returns results with pictures and links included. What Im trying to do is make it as quick as possible to enter information, i've got the ASP page returning everything correctly but I still have to copy n paste certain things onto every form entry in the database.
<img src="
<a target="_blank" href="
"
<a href="notify.asp?choice=
These are all the things I couldn't get into the ASP code on the page. When i enter data I just have to flick back a page, copy, flick forward and paste for every section that has symbols (theres about 7 of em)...... gets a bit annoying after only 5 pages.
I hope thats enough info and not too confusing. Thanks to anyone that can help.

Hi
The database is all about an athletics league, and i have set up a form for a query that i have made. When I open the form, i get the parameter box asking me which Venue ID i would like to choose, now what i would like is, whatever i type into that box to become the default value in one of the fields in the form.
i think that makes sense
Thanks In Advance

Hello,
I created a db for my property owners association. I have created a formula that adds up each year, but it won't let me do that unless I put in 0.00 for the blank fields. I was wondering if anybody could let me know if there is anyway that I can have 0.00 placed in the field so that my formula will work.
Thanks-

I have a form that when the user clicks a button a record is transferred to a new table/form. In the new form there are some extra fields that need to have default values in them. I tried setting the default values in the properties menu but that only works when creating a new record. Is there a way to have default values come up on a transferred record?

On a form I have text box named ImageVersion, and it has a default value of AO-02.17.06. It is likely that the image version's will be updated, it would be helpful if the user could change the default value currently set.
Right now, I can do this temporarily, but it does not stay once the form is closed. If the form is closed, then opened, it reverts to the original default value set.
I am not using a split database. I have it setup on a server, and users access it through there.
Any suggestions?

I have a database which stores information relating to club members, which I'm in the middle of giving a bit of a facelift and one thing I want to automate is the calculation of the expiry date.
My memberships expire annually at the end of December and the expiry date is set as a default value within the table properties. This has to be manually changed every September (every new member from then pays for 15 months) to the following December.
Is there a formula I can insert in the defaul value field that will return December the current year if todays date is between January and August, and December next year if todays date is between September and December?

Hi, in my database I have a 7 subforms that shows fields for daily tasks for each day of the week. On the Monday, the tasks are assigned and then stored for every record for the corresponding date. The process is done again on tuesday, then wednesday etc. However, often the daily tasks for say tuesday will be very similar (sometimes the same) to that of monday's.
Therefore is there a way to set the default values for each day as the previous days tasks and then alter them if needed?
Thanks for helping!:o

I am currently attempting to use SQL in Access to alter a table by adding a new attribute and giving it a default value. Creating the attribute is fine but i keep getting an error when attempting to assign a default value. My code is as follows:
ALTER TABLE Objects
ADD Status Text DEFAULT 'Object is Currently In';
It keeps telling me that I have a Syntax error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

This may be more a VBA question than a forms question.
I have a main form and a subform. The suform contains several fields and there are several records on it for any given record on the main form.
I also have a command button on the main form that creates a new record. I would like to have the default records to disply be based on the values from the previous subform.
I don't know if that is clear. An example the main form would contain a location and date and the subform would have sales figures for Tom, Jane and George for items a, b, and c. Tom, Jane and George would be records and a, b and c would be fields.
Generally a weeks worth of data would be entered and generally new values would be added for the same group of records from one day to the next for any given week, however, there might be times when more or less records were entered.
I would like to set it up so that the subform is populated with the same records as are in the subform before the command button is pressed to create a new record on the main form. For instance if on day one items sold are entered for Tom and Jane when a new record is created it would display Tom and Jane on the subform with blank values for items sold.
I thought I could use min or max to get a default value, but, the table that the values go into is by date so max might get the value for Tom but not Jane and George (I think).
Any Ideas?
Thanks

G'day,
I preface this question as most newbies do. I have just started using Access(2000) and have built rebuilt/converted from DOS a database for a basketball club. I did start from scratch and just inported the table data.
I have already made a number of forms and subforms, e.g. searching for a player displays all the other players in that team and displays the team staff from the relevant tables. So I understands the concepts.
What I have tried to do, and succeeded in part is to populate some of the fields of the Player Account records from the Fees table. I managed to do a query from the Fees table for this using a drop down for the FeeCode, which fills in the Fee Description and Fee Amount. However if I change the Fee Amount it changes all of the fee amounts for that Fee Code type. (I think I solved this myself as it is a query and that is what it should do, correct me if I am wrong). Note that all of the retrieved data is static except for the Fee Payment, which can be different amounts, this is where it changes the source. Also as it is a query I think , the retrieved data just shows on the screen and doesn't get written to the Accounts table (not the description though).
So I have obviously gone about this the wrong way and rebuilt the Accounts trying to use lookups. Here is my problem (finally you say). I cannot get the default value to lookup the fee table based on the fee code. Note I have not started on the VB side yet so please be easy on me. There is a drop down box for Fees Charged but this lists nothing, so like the query before nothing gets written to the Accounts table.
I think (maybe I don't) understand the lookup thing as I used an old (DOS) database before and did the same thing and was able to change the default value just for that account. i.e. lookup the table>field where the fee code is = to this. I have tried the subform wizard a few times but just cant get it right.
Should the lookup be in the table field or the subform. Am I on the right track and if so how do I get the retrieved info from the Fees table into the Accounts table. My end result should be something like this.
Fee Code(lookupFees - write to accounts), Description (lookupFees - display only), Fee Charged(lookupFees - write to accounts), Fees Paid(lookupfees - modify write to Accounts), Date(Accounts), Receipt Number(Accounts).
Thanks for taking the time to read this, I have tried to give as much information and hope I haven't given too much.
Regards
DrF :)

Hi, I am a newbie in MS Access. I am trying to write a simple database to record engineering drawings received. I would like to retain an entry into a field from a previous entry, but if it is slightly different allow the value to be overwritten.
For example:
If I receive a drawing from a particular person, (say) Osborne, then that is entered into the senders field. The next drawing I receive also from Osborne, wil already have Osborne in the entry field from the previous entry so I will not have to retype it. If a drawing is then received from someone else then Osborne is overtyped with the name of the new sender.
Anyone help a newbie with this please? Thanks

Hi there,
I have a table which shows telemarketing that has been completed on a weekly basis where the caller places the date they called in one field and a followup date (if needed) into another field if a followup call needs to take place.
I want to create a query which will show me all calls that have got a followup date put inplace but the followup call has not been made.
E.g i call mum on 29/11/06 i put down followup on 30/11/06. I call on the 30/11/06 so the followup has been completed but need to follow up again on the 01/12/06 but i do not complete this one.
Any ideas???
Thanks
